Technical field
The disclosure relates generally to a kind of oil pump assembly, and this oil pump assembly comprises for the low gain Decompression valves at motor management oil pump discharge pressure.More particularly, the disclosure relates to the Decompression valves that has special application in a kind of pump of the lubrication system in the explosive motor of vehicle.
Background technique
Usually be known that a kind of explosive motor that comprises the oil pump assembly is provided, this oil pump assembly is lubricated engine components with the various lubrication channels by motor (usually also be called path and jointly be called engine oil path) for the oil pump for engine warp let-off is crossed to motor.Be known that: have by engine-driven oil pump, and fuel pump speed changes according to the speed of motor.It is also known that providing a kind of has the oil pump assembly of the device such as Decompression valves to be adjusted in oil pump assembly and in-engine pressure.Decompression valves is also for generally being conducive to management in any other application of the fluid overvoltage of specific assembly or application.At the motor for vehicle, thereby usually be known that the use Decompression valves meets the oil pressure limit of motor to regulate discharge pressure during power operation, and attempt to provide the energy management for oil pump.
For the pump of incompressible fluid---such as oil---normally gear pump, gerotor or vane pump, but it can be any known or suitable type.In the environment such as car engine lubrication system, when oil pump is attached to motor and travels with the speed identical with power operation speed, oil pump will operate in wide velocity range.In this application, fuel pump speed changes due to the output volume oily and the variation aspect delivery pressure.The change speed because engine lubrication system can be modeled as the aperture of fixed dimension and pump according to the service speed of pump, so this is accurate especially, along with engine speed increases, the outlet pressure of oil pump will increase.Usually, along with power operation speed increases, motor needs lubricating oil pressure to increase to maximum pressure levels from the pressure minimum level, but, before motor reaches its maximum service speed, has usually obtained oil pressure maximum demand or desirable.Therefore, usually, along with power operation speed and fuel pump speed increase (that is, oil pressure continues to increase), at a time, oil pump will provide over the power operation velocity range overlubricate oil greatly.Simultaneously, the loss of oil can cause the infringement to engine components, and the oil of overvoltage is also undesirable.For example, oil pressure is too high can be damaged the paper filter element and have other undesirable effects on motor, and can cause excessive kinetic equation loss.
In order to prevent or limit the oil of overvoltage in system and motor, the common known Decompression valves that comprises for lubrication system.In order to control this overfeeding and in order to control otherwise can damage the overvoltage of the result of engine components, undesirable part that constant discharge pump in this environment is provided with the oil that allows overfeeding usually is back to oil groove or fuel tank or is back to the Decompression valves of the entrance of oil pump, thus the lubrication system that makes the desirable volume of fluid only and desirable pressure be supplied to motor.Decompression valves is connected with oil pump and motor and the oil discharge is back to when when oil pressure, reaching the limit presetted in oil groove to the suction side of oil pump (, be disposed to).A kind of Decompression valves of known type is in U.S. Patent No. 6,116, is disclosed in 272, and wherein, Decompression valves is integrated in oil pump.Decompression valves comprises the piston be positioned in cylindrical channel or hole, and piston is setovered along a direction (that is, towards closed position) by spring.Be supplied to a side (that is, a side contrary with the bias force that is applied to piston or spring force) of piston from the compressed oil of oil pump outlet, and compressed oil antagonistic spring and urge piston.Along with engine revolution is faster, oil pump also rotates faster and work is more difficult, and oil pressure increases.Because oil pressure increases, the piston antagonistic spring in Decompression valves and move, and move to following point in hole: make exhaust port permission oil spill stream on the edge at piston be back to the entrance of oil groove or pump at this some place.Use the oil pressure Decompression valves of this general type, the oil pump outlet pressure is for judging when oily Decompression valves will open internally to get around the high pressure oil that is back to the suction side of oil pump from the waste side of oil pump.Such typical oil pressure Decompression valves will be set as being suitable for the preheating setting pressure level of specific engines and application and open.
Although this conventional oil pressure Decompression valves is simple and reliably, known restriction and shortcoming are that the kinetic equation loss to oil pump has adverse influence and makes kinetic equation loss relative higher.The fuel efficiency that the high kinetic equation loss of oil pump is equivalent to reduce, this is significant shortcoming all the time.
In a known application, such as being disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 6,481, in the application in 458, the Decompression valves assembly comprises the tap hole for the gradual shape of the oil pressure Decompression valves of the lubrication system of motor.This example in addition is disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 7,775,503.Especially, the U.S. 6,481, the open and teaching of 458 documents be formed on the decompression inflow section on an end of valve chest; And the decompression discharge portion at neutral position place that is formed on the valve path of valve chest, and comprise aperture section and the macropore section communicated with each other that form.The decompression discharge portion is provided with aperture section in the side near decompression inflow section.Yet, in some cases (such as because the valve spring power at the aperture position place in having the Decompression valves of a plurality of operation pressures is relatively low, such as when pilot pressure is supplied to Decompression valves), this hole shape has defect, and this is stain resistance (due to the particulate in oil) due to valve little particle sizes in some of compromising.For example, this little particulate can occur from sand-cast, or other pollutants in oil can occur from the foundry goods of the metal shell for Decompression valves or oil pump case, and Decompression valves must be with lower pressure setting effect relatively, such as in thering is the oil pump systems of pump, selectable outlet pressure is described and is that the name of submitting on September 20th, 2005 is called " pump that Pump With Selectable Outlet Pressure(has selectable outlet pressure) ", in the document W02006032132A1 that the invention people is Matthew Williamson, the full content of the document is incorporated in herein.In selectable pressure oil pump and lubrication system, it is desirable to that Decompression valves is had to relatively lower operation pressure to reduce energy loss.Yet, in this system, Decompression valves must operate with lower spring force, this lower spring force makes valve be easier to be subject to pollute and disturbs.Similarly problem is useful in the system of oil pump assembly and the closed-loop feedback control of using Decompression valves---such as using pilot-actuated valve---.Reduce the conventional method of valve gain, such as progressive opening (overflowing) window shape, enough do not proved and support resistant to pollution robustness in Decompression valves when using in conjunction with relatively low spring force.
Retain the remarkable needs to the low gain Decompression valves for managing better the small particle pollution problem, and avoided interference and self sustained oscillation.Therefore, retained being for the remarkable needs of the solution that can manage satisfactorily and/or eliminate the good robustness that realizes controllable low gain decompression and keep the opposing small particle to pollute contacting between valve body and housing when valve while opening.

Embodiment
Generally with reference to institute's drawings attached, particularly with reference to Fig. 2, disclose a kind of new design for low gain Decompression valves 10, this low gain Decompression valves 10 is for having special practicability use the oil pump assembly (not shown) at the motor (not shown) of vehicle (not shown) such as those in and in the oil pump especially for the motor (not shown) in the passenger car (not shown).Although the Decompression valves 10 illustrated has special practicability at the oil pump assembly for motor, should be understood that, Decompression valves of the present disclosure can have application in the similar application that comprises other known or suitable application and environment.
Low gain Decompression valves 10 comprises valve chest 20, and this valve chest 20 has valve channel or the hole 16 of longitudinally extending in valve chest 20.Valve chest 20 can be made for the one-piece element of oil pump assembly, and as the situation of the mode of execution shown in Fig. 2, or valve chest 20 can alternately be made for the oil pump assembly and separates with the oil pump (not shown).Valve chest 20 is made and is made for metal (such as aluminium or the magnesium) parts of casting usually by metallic material.Low gain Decompression valves 10 and passage 16 also define longitudinal center's axis " X ", as shown in dotted line in the accompanying drawings.Low gain Decompression valves 10 has inlet channel or entrance 12 and outlet passage or exports 14, as understood in correlation technique.In one embodiment, thus low gain Decompression valves 10 can have additional passage or mouthful---such as guide's inlet channel or first introducing port 13---with for connecting with the pilot valve (not shown) for variable or a plurality of pressure, operating Decompression valves.
In the mode of execution of Fig. 2, low gain Decompression valves 10 comprise the valve body that is arranged in passage or hole 16 or piston 30(as at Fig. 4 and Fig. 5 is best illustrates), low gain Decompression valves 10 comprises first piston or lower piston 34, central neck or intermediate portion 35 and the second piston or the upper piston 37 in the hole 16 that also is located at housing 20.Valve body or piston 30 also comprise at least one outer circumferential portion 31, and this at least one outer circumferential portion 31 is as the part of lower piston 34, and lower piston 34 at least one outer circumferential portion 31 of comprising top 32, bottom 33 and being arranged in the hole 16 of housing 20.As Fig. 2, Fig. 3 and Fig. 6 the best illustrate, hole 16 can be along the vicissitudinous diameter of length tool of Decompression valves 10.Therefore, hole 16 upper end 19(is referring to Fig. 6) there is the diameter of comparing different (reducing) from the diameter of the central part in hole 16 and bottom.
Decompression valves 10 also comprises spring 40, this spring 40 is for setovering valve body 30 enduringly towards closed position along first direction, and 50 places, end at housing 20, the entrance 12 of valve chest 20 is closed or stopped to valve body 30 and at least one outer circumferential portion 31, as shown in Fig. 2, Fig. 6 and Figure 15 to Figure 17.Entrance 12 arrives Decompression valves 10 for the fluid (such as the oil of discharging oil pump) that allows pressurization and arrives the top 32 of the first piston 34 of valve body 30, thereby valve body is moved away from end 50.The common supply of entrance 12 has the on high-tension side relatively high pressure fluid from the oil pump of the fluid lubrication system of motor.Along with engine speed increases, the pressure of the fluid in entrance 12 increases makes the bias force of valve body 30 antagonistic springs 40 move towards open position until pressure is high enough to, as a series of partial cross section diagrams in Fig. 7, wherein, valve body 30 moves to the position (at the place, bottom of Fig. 7, having the opening of 4 millimeters) of opening fully from closed position (at the top of Fig. 7).Enough distances have been moved once valve piston 30 is interior in the hole 16 of housing 20, the outer circumferential portion 31 of piston 34 moves to the bottom of central hole 16 and aims at, and the relatively high pressure fluid that enters entrance 12 can be circulated to relatively low tension outlet 14 with for discharging fluid and fluid being back to fluid lubrication system (pump or oil sump).
The housing 20 of Decompression valves 10 is preferably manufactured by the die-cast metal material, as everyone knows.The housing 20 of Decompression valves 10 comprises entrance 12 and outlet 14, and this entrance 12 and outlet 14 form in having the mould (not shown) of the direction of edge shown in 6 and the draft angle Z that plane was become perpendicular to axis X during the casting of housing 20.Draft angle Z is corresponding to outlet 14 at least first wall 18, but typically corresponding to entrance 12, first introducing port 13 with export each wall in 14, as is understood.Therefore, export 14 wall 18 and be angle Z(referring to Fig. 6 with respect to the vertical direction of longitudinal axis X with Decompression valves 10).Reaffirm that a hole 16 makes in housing 20 along the axis X of housing 20.Wall 18 is and is equivalent to the angle that 90 degree deduct the Z degree with respect to the wall in axis X and hole 16.In one embodiment, draft angle Z is less than five (5) and spends or be approximately 5 degree.More particularly, draft angle Z is less than twice or is approximately two (2) degree, and in one embodiment, draft angle Z is approximately 1.5 degree (once partly).
In a kind of special mode of execution, the upper end of piston 34 (as observed in Fig. 2, Fig. 4, Fig. 5) and therefore the 32 upper end, close top of at least one outer circumferential portion 31 comprise end difference or forming part.Especially, the upper end of piston 34 comprises reduced diameter portion 44, and the diameter of this reduced diameter portion 44 has reduced amount 2X D, and the upper end of piston 34 have from circumferential portion 31 top or approximately outside the top of circumferential portion 31 towards top 32 axial ranges that extend.Reduced diameter portion 44 is reduced to make at the fluid of Decompression valves 10 or the chip in oil or other pollutants can not to cause the interference of piston 34 and to stick fully, therefore, yet can between the wall due to the hole 16 of pollutant clamping stagnation in reduced diameter portion 44 and housing 20, not cause the interference of the valve body 30 in passage or hole 16 and stick.And reduced diameter portion 44 allows to make the fluid of pressurization to start to be flowing between the wall in reduced diameter portion 44 and hole 16 before piston 34 moves to the position of opening fully.Reduced diameter portion 44 is led to the convergent section 45 of extending between reduced diameter portion 44 and top 32.
Convergent section 45 preferably has the angle Y with respect to reduced diameter portion 44, as Fig. 5 the best illustrates.Angle Y be selected as along with valve body 30 from closed position (Fig. 2) to open position (Figure 13 and Figure 14) mobile and low gain that be provided at the oil Decompression valves 10 flows, as best illustrating in progressive view in Fig. 7.Angle Y preferably selects to the scope of about 60 (60) degree from about five (5) degree.More particularly, angle Y preferably selects to the scope of about 45 (45) degree from about ten (10) degree.In one embodiment, angle Y is chosen as about ten (10) degree.For the angle Y of convergent section 45 be selected as along with valve body 30 from closed position (Fig. 2) to open position (Figure 13 and Figure 14) mobile and low gain that be provided at the oil of Decompression valves 10 flows, as shown in best in the progressive view in Fig. 7.
Therefore, along with valve body 30 moves towards open position, because reduced diameter portion 44 and convergent section 45 have passed through the end (as shown in Figure 7) of the wall in hole 16 in advance, so the pressure of fluid will reduce slightly, and compare with traditional Decompression valves of Fig. 1, will have the low gain performance of Decompression valves 10.Please note prior-art devices and current disclosed device and modification at Figure 10 to Figure 14 that aspect flowing, (referring to Figure 12 and Figure 13) compares.In order further to present difference, please note Fig. 9, Fig. 9 has drawn the opening area of Decompression valves (Fig. 1 (prior art) and Fig. 2 (low gain mode of execution)) and valve body 30 in 16Nei position, hole (valve position)." gain " calculates with the formula of Fig. 8.The prior art design has the straight line type path for the relation after initial position.Yet decompressor 10 of the present disclosure comparatively speaking has low-down gain about the position of valve body 30.
As shown in Fig. 2, Fig. 3, Fig. 6, Fig. 7 and Figure 11 and Figure 13 to Figure 17, please note " box " position of Fig. 2 (again, should be understood that, " box " is simply for guiding focus and not forming the low gain Decompression valves or any part of the present invention), the central hole of valve chest 20 or intermediate hole 16 preferably include counterbore 17, and this counterbore 17 is positioned at outlet 14 positions of the most close Decompression valves 10 towards the lower end of central hole 16.Similarly, the infall of counterbore 17 between the wall 18 of passage or hole 16 and outlet 14.
In a kind of special mode of execution, counterbore 17 is preferably designed so that the linear extensional surface 17a(had with the Surface Vertical in hole 16 is referring to Figure 11).Undercutting counterbore 17 in the mode of execution shown in Fig. 2 also comprises counterbore rounding 17c and relative sidewall 17b.Although counterbore 17 has as illustrated in the drawings and the shape of describing, and is contemplated that other shapes (combinations of ellipse, curvilinerar figure, lineal shape, fragment and/or these shapes) and the details of counterbore is possible.In addition, discuss as shown in figure 17 and hereinafter, on only side in possible is counterbore 17 can be presented on hole 16.Regardless of the shape of counterbore, the scope of the surperficial 17a of counterbore 17 preferably forms perpendicular to the axis X of the housing 20 of Decompression valves 10 and perpendicular to the surface in hole 16.Undercutting counterbore 17 is in preferably processing or form in the housing 20 at Decompression valves 10 during the manufacture of housing 20, and undercutting counterbore 17 has the shape of extension between the surface 18 of the surface in hole 16 and outlet 14.Although counterbore 17 can be processed in housing 20, such as by drill bit being inserted through entrance or when not having spring or plunger, thereby drill bit being inserted and carries out counterbore drilling operation from the bottom of housing 20, but should be understood that, counterbore 17 can utilize any known or suitable processing or forming technique or operation to be formed in housing 20.For any this alternative or known (or also unknown) technology of wall that counterbore surface 17a and hole 16 are provided, be suitable, wherein, counterbore surface 17a is perpendicular to axis X, and the wall in hole 16 will work for eliminating in hole 16 draft angle Z on every side.For example, please note Figure 17, Decompression valves 10 according to the present invention comprises counterbore 17, and wherein, wall 18 basically is processed into flat (that is, perpendicular to axis X) and only makes on the side of Figure 17 (that is, left side) in the drawings to can be observed undercutting counterbore 17.
In a kind of special mode of execution, as shown in figure 16,16 lower end, hole 16 ' has (or increasing large diameter) lower end 35 of with the main part 36 of the outer circumferential portion 31 of valve body 30, comparing and enlarging.In this embodiment, the lower end 33 of valve body 30 comprises diameter expansion section 35.Similar with the mode of execution of Fig. 2, the upper hole section 19 that the hole 16 between first introducing port 13 and entrance 12 of the Decompression valves 10 of Figure 16 comprises that diameter reduces, make in the top and bottom of the valve body 30 of hole 16 interior slips and have extra stability on the operating range of Decompression valves 10.For the class of operation of the Decompression valves of the mode of execution of the operation of the Decompression valves 10 of Figure 16 and Fig. 2 seemingly, the Decompression valves 10 of Figure 16 comprises undercutting counterbore 17 and the reduced diameter portion on piston 34 44 and convergent section 45, therefore be back to now the progressive diagram of Decompression valves 10 and Fig. 7.
Counterbore 17 will cause valve body 30 to have the more operation of balance in Decompression valves 10 perpendicular to axis X and perpendicular to the wall in hole 16.Shown in the best in the progressive diagram in Fig. 7, the prior-art devices in left side to be compared with the Decompression valves 10 of the Fig. 2 on right side, how the improved design that can be easy to observe Decompression valves of the present disclosure compares.Pay special attention to the 0.6mm position in Fig. 7, wherein, for prior-art devices, the left side of the top surface of valve body is aimed at wall 18, but wall 18 has been left on the right side of the top surface of valve body, only on a side, is observing opening or interval.Comparatively speaking, Decompression valves 10(on the right side of Fig. 7 is according to the disclosure) in the 0.6mm position illustrated (all positions thus), the piston 34 of valve body 30 is balance around the integral body of piston, because undercutting counterbore 17 forms perpendicular to axis X and perpendicular to the wall in hole 16.Consider in addition the position of the low gain mode of execution of Fig. 7, at the aperture position place of 1 millimeter, 2 millimeters and 4 millimeters, it will be mild presenting that fluid by device flows, shown in the chart of Fig. 9 and as discussed above.In addition, because Decompression valves 10 is balance now, thereby this Decompression valves 10 can not experienced the self sustained oscillation as occurred in variable pressure oil pump or use the relatively low pressure occurred in pilot valve control those oil pumps with relatively low pressure operation.And, as disclosed in the text and low gain Decompression valves 10 teaching discharge gradually oil and prevent the quick release of oil and prevented relevant pulsation.Finally, as the low gain Decompression valves 10 of disclosed in the text and teaching will be not can be because small particle in oil (such as those may be present in the small particle that coming from the casting manufacture process or coming from other external sources in housing 20) is interfered, as the prior art Decompression valves by the interference of experiencing.
Any numerical value of enumerating in this paper and accompanying drawing is intended to comprise from lower value all values to high value with the form of the increment of a unit, and the increment of a unit is arranged in the interval that has at least two units between any lower value and any high value.As example, if the value of the amount of predetermined member or process variable---for example, temperature, pressure, time etc.---for example from 1 to 90, preferably from 20 to 80, more preferably from 30 to 70, purpose is such as 15 to 85,22 to 68,43 to 51,30 to 32 equivalences are explicitly recited in specification.For being less than 1 value, a unit depends on the circumstances and is considered to 0.0001,0.001,0.01 or 0.1.These are only the examples of specific intended, and all possible combination of the numerical value between the minimum of enumerating and peak is considered to stipulate clearly in a similar fashion in this application.If observe, the teaching that is expressed as in the text the amount of " parts by weight " is also considered same range as in weight percent.Therefore, it is also conceivable that the teaching into the scope of the same reference amount of " final polymer mixed component mark calculates by weight " x " " about the statement of " " x " part that the final polymer mixed component is calculated by weight " in the specific embodiment of the present invention.
Except as otherwise noted, all scopes comprise end points and the numerical value between end points.Be applied to the two ends of scope about the use of " approximately " or " being similar to " of scope.Therefore, " about 20 to 30 " are intended to comprise " about 20 to about 30 ", comprise at least specific end points.
